General Counsel
O2E Brands
This role goes beyond traditional legal oversight. It is about architecting the legal, risk, and data foundations required to support a more complex, technology-enabled, and partnership-driven business. As O2E grows through new products, M&A, evolving franchise and joint partnership models, and deeper ownership of customer relationships and data, the General Counsel will act as a strategic partner, helping leaders navigate ambiguity and make high-quality decisions at speed.
At the same time, this is an opportunity to redefine how legal work gets done. The General Counsel will lead the evolution of an AI and technology-enabled legal function — leveraging modern tools to increase clarity, effectiveness and pace while ensuring strong governance and responsible use.
This is a role for someone who is energized by change, comfortable operating in a dynamic environment and motivated by the opportunity to help build something enduring.

- M&A, Partnerships & Corporate Development
- Support legal strategy and execution for mergers, acquisitions, and joint ventures
- Structure and support strategic partnerships and investments
- Provide guidance on deal risk, integration, and governance
- Franchise & Operating Model Evolution
- Evolve legal frameworks to support both a traditional franchise model and a joint venture partnership
- Balance brand protection, operator autonomy, and commercial flexibility
- Support franchise partners while enabling business transformation
- Litigation, Compliance & Governance
- Oversee litigation strategy, dispute resolution, and regulatory compliance
- Maintain strong, practical corporate governance practices
- Manage external counsel effectively and ensure high-quality, cost-efficient outcomes
- Legal Function Leadership
- Build and lead a modern, business-aligned legal function
- Shift focus from reactive support to proactive partnership
- Establish clear priorities, operating rhythms, and performance expectations
- Legal Operations, Technology & AI Enablement
- Design and implement an AI-enabled legal operating model to improve speed, accuracy, and scalability
- Leverage AI tools for contract review, drafting, research, and knowledge management
- Identify opportunities to automate repeatable legal workflows and reduce manual effort
- Partner with Technology teams to ensure legal is aligned with broader AI and data strategy
- Establish governance around the responsible and secure use of AI in legal workflows
What Success Looks Like
- Legal is seen as a strategic partner and enabler
- The business moves faster with clear, confident decision-making
- Risk is understood, visible, and actively managed
- Data, privacy, and payments are secure, scalable, and compliant
- M&A and partnerships are executed with speed and discipline
- Franchise and partnership models evolve without legal friction
- The legal team leverages AI and technology to scale output without scaling headcount
- Contracts, reviews, and approvals move at the speed of the business
What You Bring
- Senior legal leadership experience in high-growth, multi-entity or multi-brand environments
- Deep experience in commercial law, M&A, litigation, risk mitigation and corporate structuring
- Strong understanding of data privacy, payments, and regulatory environments
- Experience supporting technology-enabled or platform-based businesses
- Exposure to franchise or distributed operating models is an asset
- Tech-enabled legal leadership and support
